Supply Chain Snag Hits Stillwater Schools: Report

STILLWATER, MN — Students in some Stillwater schools are being asked to bring their own water bottles to class, with supply chain issues causing shortages of bottled water and cartons of milk — a lunchtime staple for decades — according to a report.

The district sent emails Monday notifying parents of supply chain-related shortages of certain products at its middle and high schools, the Twin Cities Pioneer Press reports. Officials did not provide any estimate on how long the shortages could last.

The milk vendor for Stillwater Area Public Schools can only fulfill about half of the district’s typical order, and officials were unable to secure milk and water from other vendors, the report states.

Stillwater elementary students should not see any effects from the shortages, a district official told the Pioneer Press.
